According to the corrigendum, a typographical error occurred in Clause 15.5, General Regulations, Serial No. 10, relating to Green TDR.
The corrected provision states that when land is developed through a project by an implementing agency in the relevant land-use area, the Development Control Regulations (DCR) certificate equivalent to twice the area of land included in the project will be issued under Green TDR.
The government has clarified that this corrected provision should be read in place of the wording published earlier.
The proposed Bhopal Development Plan 2047 retains specific planning criteria for construction of own housing, including a minimum plot size of 500 square metres, a 9-metre-wide access road and a maximum building height of 10 metres.
Under the planning criteria, the maximum land coverage has been prescribed at 25 per cent, while the base Floor Area Ratio (FAR) is 0.50. The maximum permissible FAR is 1.25.
The remaining provisions relating to frontage, open areas and other requirements will continue to be governed by the applicable provisions of Table 15.5.
The draft also requires applicants to obtain a certificate from the concerned local authority confirming that the land is not part of an illegal colony.
